Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "It's for the future of the shogunate! Because I have discovered a very dangerous situation. There is no room for progress for the shogunate in the entire prefecture. For example, the Toichi Kui during the Kaji years and the Rokkaku high-ranking people during the civilized years were unable to attack the shogunate. However, it is even different now.  In the past, the shogunate was unable to attack disloyal people. This was the biggest problem of our shogunate. Although the crisis of the shogunate has been temporarily resolved, the foundation of the Miyoshi family has not been lost. It will come back in the future. How long can our shogunate resist it?  Hosokawa and Ouchi fought fiercely against Kinai, which greatly weakened the power of our shogunate. Today, Miyoshi and Rokkaku are fighting for hegemony in Kyoto, which has repeatedly disturbed people's hearts. In the past, there were Hosokawa and Ouchi, and today there are Miyoshi and Rokkaku. Maybe there will be some careerists in the future.  If the shogunate is not strong, such ambitious people will emerge in endlessly. How can I survive such resistance day after day, year after year? I can't sleep at night thinking about it!  It's not a big deal for the Black Rokkaku family to tell lies in person, but it's still a bit uneasy to tell nonsense in front of the general. Fortunately, the shogunate didn't notice this detail.  Ashikaga Yoshiki frowned and thought about the meaning of these words. When he thought about it carefully, he had never seriously thought about this kind of problem. Every day, he was either planning to defeat Miyoshi or planning to restore the foundation of his ancestors. How could he have the time to think about such complicated things, but in detail  There was something ominous about Ji Liangyi's words. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "What should I do with Yishi?" "Before this, I had been worried to death for several years and still couldn't figure it out.  It wasn't until Nagao bombed the main hall that he finally realized the reason! The reason is that our shogunate itself is not strong, and the distant country protects the daimyo and does not provide support. However, the current hard work can only ensure that the shogunate is isolated in a corner of Yamashiro country and remains safe.  Will the Miyoshi family let our shogunate go? They will come back sooner or later. At that time, they will have no internal support and no strong support from the outside. They will still have to rely on our shogunate's weak foundation to resist. A miserable victory will be costly, and a failure will be a disaster.  All losses are lost and all foundations are lost! Can the shogunate withstand the blow of a complete defeat? I dare not say that I can still win undefeated against Miyoshi. The only thing that the samurai who gets carried away by one or two victories will face is destruction, so  I thought of going down to Echigo to build support for the shogunate in the distant country, but simply going down to Echigo was not enough. Without the support of force, I was just an empty shell. But going to Echigo with a large army would be tabooed by the people of the country.  I just thought of marrying the sister of Nagao Tanshoden" "What are you talking about!" Ashikaga Yoshiki suddenly jumped up and threw the folding fan in his hand and almost hit Kira Yoshitoki's face. The anger in his heart turned into a voice that suddenly rose in pitch.  A lot of it, wanting to kick this bastard who angered him.  "Do you know what you are talking about? You are betraying the shogunate! You are betraying Yu! You abandon the righteousness of serving the shogunate because you are interested in the women and foundation of the Nagao family. You are a traitor who is unjust for profit! How in the world can I feel sorry for you?  You actually want to abandon the shogunate? Please explain it clearly to me!" Ashikaga Yoshiki's anger was not unexpected. He could only remain motionless to receive the angry roar of Qianqing Gongfang, and his cheeks were flying.  The folding fan hit me so much that it hurt. Fortunately, I had involuntarily leaned back just now.  He just escaped a fatal blow to his eye.  Ashikaga Yoshiteru knows better than anyone the source of the shogunate's ability to revive, and it is not the flattery of the shogunate or the beautifully written pleadings.  It was the force guarantee provided by the Kira family, a bloody and desperate battle of nine thousand elites. The shogunate army and Hosokawa Harumoto's troops were vulnerable to the Miyoshi family, and only the nine thousand army of Kira Yoshitoshi could continue to fight.  Victory in three formations kills people and fills the field.  Even if the shogunate was naturally afraid of powerful officials and wanted to suppress Kira Yoshi, he would not dare to just let him go, because the Kira family had become the talisman of the shogunate, and he could easily throw it away before the shogunate's own strength was strengthened.  Amulet?  So how could Ashikaga Yoshiteru allow this powerful minister of the shogunate to leave him?  No matter what the reason is!  He must stay in Kinai and serve as the talisman of the shogunate honestly and peacefully. If the daughter of the Ashikaga family was not too young, Ashikaga Yoshiteru would force him to be his brother-in-law now. There is no doubt about this!  "Why can't you tell me? Can't Omi Shiga and Takashima counties satisfy your appetite? How about the guardian of the mountain city? Do you want to be the commander? What about the deputy general? Is it possible that you still want to replace Yu as the general of the conquest of barbarians?  "The anger was accumulated in Ashikaga Yoshiki's chest. The general, who was obviously dizzy, kicked the overturner and knocked the bottles and cans all over the floor.  In anger, he picked up the vase on the side and threw it towards Kira Yoshitoki. There was a "bang" sound, and Kira Yoshitoki fell straight to the ground. The broken vase hit his head and flew out. Fortunately, he was not hit.  His head was bruised and bleeding, but the big bump on his head still frightened the man waiting outside the hall.  Seeing Kira Yoshiki struggling to sit up after being smashed like that, Ashikaga Yoshiteru suddenly began to regret his recklessness.? and madness, this attack must have destroyed most of the relationship between monarch and minister. How can two people without kindness and righteousness establish a close relationship?  Looking at Kiragi's stubborn eyes again, he already knew that he was powerless to stop him.  Kira Yoshi's face was twisted, and the sharp pain on his forehead was not as fast as the twitching in his heart. He never thought that he would be hit by these two throws, a folding fan hit his face, and a vase hit his head. What did he do wrong?  Let Ashikaga Yoshiki treat him like this?  At this moment, there was only a cold feeling in his heart.  "This is a good blow! I can leave without any apology!" Kira Yoshihide restrained himself and held onto the burning wound, and said in a more firm tone: "I have no intention of betraying the shogunate.  The loyalty of my ministers to the shogunate and His Highness is evident from the sun and the moon, but the shogunate is too weak and in need of strong support. The only thing I, Kira Yoshitoshi, can do for the shogunate is fight to the death with those thousands of elite divisions.  But there is only so much I can do today. With more than half of the nine thousand elites destroyed, it is still a question whether we can defeat Sanzhu next time. Once I am defeated, the shogunate's revival will be cut off. Not only will His Highness Gongfang be forced to leave Kyoto for refuge,  I will also lose the possibility of recovery, so I will go out to seek support from other forces while I still have strength. As long as I, Kira Yoshito, are loyal to the shogunate, I can defeat Kai.  Takeda. It took another five or seven years to defeat Ezhong and Koga Ichikui, and together with the Asakura family, they went to Luo to sweep away the Miyoshi and establish a lasting foundation for the shogunate. " "So you want to leave, right?"  What can I do? Without your protection, how can I resist Sanzhu's iron hoof?" Ashikaga Yoshiki stared at him coldly, listening to him describe the beautiful picture, but there was no excitement on his face.  Since the friendship was gone, Ashikaga Yoshiki did not intend to do more to comfort him. He said sarcastically like a broken pot: "What about the shogunate? You have five or seven years on the left, and five or seven years on the right. What about the shogunate?  Can you survive all these years? Are you going to let Sanzhu force Yu to go back to Sakamoto? Tell you! I will never go back to Kyoto this time! " It feels like the wound on my forehead!  It doesn't hurt as much as before.  He took another deep breath and forced a smile: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will never leave without abandoning the shogunate. According to what I know, Hatakeyama and Rokkaku have secretly formed an alliance. The main content of their alliance is that Miyoshi will withdraw from the rule and share the Kinai."  , Hatakeyama and Rokkaku are both inside and outside each other, and the legacy of the leader and the leader will continue to be passed down! Of course, this covenant is based on deception. The strength of the Hosokawa family is not as good as before, but the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, Kinai!  There are many people who accept the love of the Hosokawa family, and now Hosokawa Harumoto and his wife are trapped in Fumonji Temple. Rokkaku Yoshiken must defeat Miyoshi no matter what, firstly to save his sister and brother-in-law, and secondly for territorial expansion.  , To revitalize the family, as for who the Takaya-don of the Hatakeyama family is, His Highness must also know something about it. " Regarding his proposed plan, Ashikaga Yoshiki could only respond silently. Half a month ago, the shogunate did indeed.  I received an oath from Hatakeyama Takamasa. The content is nothing more than expressing that the Hatakeyama family has been loyal to the shogunate for generations. He, Hatakeyama Takamasa, will clear out the three buildings of the shogunate. He also asked Ashikaga Yoshiteru to continue to fulfill the previous agreement. As long as the three buildings are cleared away,  Changqing made him the leader.  He didn¡¯t pay much attention to this affidavit before. Can you trust what a guy with an abnormal mind says?  The shogunate felt humiliated by the big mistake last time. It was a shame and humiliation for him, the dignified shogunate, to play with a bastard.  But hearing what Kira Yoshitoki said, he realized that the Hatakeyama family had most likely colluded with the Rokkaku family. The maximum number of armed forces that the two families could mobilize exceeded 50,000, and the supporting national lords could be found in half of Kinki.  , this is enough to compete with the Miyoshi family, but without a talisman, how can the shogunate maintain a detached and neutral position in the fight between the two powers?  Making amulets is completely different when Kiragi is around, so I still can't let him go.  When Kira Yoshiki carefully observed the changing expressions of Ashikaga Yoshiki, he knew that he was considering the pros and cons of leaving or not, so he decided to give this strong-willed prince a step forward: "Not all of you will leave when I go to Echigo this time."  , After all, the two counties still need to be guarded, so I will leave six thousand troops to help the two counties as garrison. This army also obeys the orders of the shogunate. If there is trouble in Kyoto, they will take the initiative to take on the important task of guarding the capital. "  Ashikaga Yoshiteru had nothing to say. Kira Yoshitoki had already taken care of all the details. He didn't have to pay for the six thousand elite soldiers, and he was still a retainer of the Kira family to lead them. There was nothing better than this. Now he would  I regret and blame myself even more. If I had known earlier, I would not have been so impulsive and would not have hurt the friendship between the monarch and his ministers.  If the hard one doesn't work, you can only use the soft one. If you want to recover the lost love, you have to be bound by love. Ashikaga Yoshiki said shamelessly: "This way you can welcome"??The daughter of the Nagao family is still at a loss!  How about letting the daughter of the Nagao family be the concubine and marry her sister-in-law?  " "Inappropriate!  If it weren't for this marriage relationship, Nagao Danshodon would not have allowed his ministers to lead the army to Echigo, because Nagao Danshoden had sworn not to marry in this life, and his sister was the only person closest to him in the world. For this reason, Nagao Danshoden  The Nagao Danzhengdian did not hesitate to train her as the heir of the family governor. Only the daughter of the Nagao family can gain the complete trust of the Nagao Danzhengdian.  "Yoshitoki Kira disagreed with his proposal. If you don't marry the daughter of the Nagao family, how can you marry your sister who is only five years old? Now Ashikaga Yoshiteru has nothing to say. Kira Yoshitoki has risked his life for the great cause of the Ashikaga family, no?  Instead of marrying the rich man of the Ashikaga family, he married a country girl as his wife. He thought to himself: "When my son becomes a general in the future, he will have to marry his daughter as his wife no matter what. This can be considered as compensation for him!  " In the end, Ashikaga Yoshiki finally reluctantly agreed to his proposal. Of course, Ashikaga Yoshiki suggested that it would be best to send some loyal and reliable samurai to command the three thousand troops. Kira Yoshiki said that he would hand over this army to  Nakajo Tokihide stayed as the commander. Ashikaga Yoshiki finally let him go, so Kira Yoshiki returned to Sakamoto with the general's order and first summoned Yamamoto Tokiyuki to tell him about the matter.  Staring at him, he suddenly grinned and said: "Has the owner finally figured it out?  "    "What's the meaning?  " "Master, do you still remember the oath you swore in Mitsubahachimangu Shrine?  " "After leaving my homeland, I will definitely bring glory to the Kira family and put an end to the troubled times of the Warring States Period!  "Ji Liangyoshi just recalled it for a moment. "The master of the hall has completed the first part of the oath.  "    "Um!  " Yamamoto Tokiyuki looked at him with one eye and suddenly said: "It's time to fight for the second vow!  " "The second vow?  Kira Yoshito said seriously: "I will work hard!"  ¡± After the matter of declaring the order to Echigo was concluded, Kira Yoshito immediately convened a executive meeting to make arrangements for the sharing of government affairs between the two counties. The order to be sent to Echigo was immediately announced at the evaluation meeting in early December, which naturally caused an uproar, and many samurai  He expressed that he couldn't understand. The Kira family was living well in Kinai. Everyone thought they had found a good supporter and were looking forward to a good life. Immediately, a dozen samurai stood up and said sincerely:  "Master, please think again!  " "Master, please think twice!"  " "My decision is as follows, you don't need to say anything else!  "Kirara Yoshitoki simply left the job of explanation and comfort to Yamamoto Tokiyuki. He wanted to cultivate a sense of obedience among the retainers. The governor's decision does not need to seek everyone's approval. It must be implemented even if it is not understood. The trend of consensus among the people cannot be allowed.  A certain degree of arbitrariness is still necessary in the Kira family. As expected, when this news is like dropping a bomb, what will this move mean for the shogunate and Kinki?  When hearing the shocking news, some of them began to panic. What else could they do if they stayed in Omi without Kiragi? Will they continue to be a refuge for the general or be oppressed? This is a question worth pondering.  The news about Echigo was not kept secret. Within a few days, it spread through the Kinai in the form of gossip. Of course, many people did not believe this rumor. However, as Nagao Kagetora settled in Sakamoto Castle with a tour group, it all seemed  It developed in an unusual direction. Some daimyo and people from the country began to appear frequently in Kyoto, taking advantage of the meeting with the general to inquire about information. Some people tried to ask questions about the rumors, but the shogunate chose to pretend to be deaf without exception.  , and then heard that Kira Yoshitoki secretly discussed the matter of Echigo's descent, which also aggravated the suspicion of many people. In the Kannonji Castle Castle, Rokkaku Yoshihide was listening to Mochizuki Yoshito's intelligence report, when he heard.  When the Kira family was about to go down to Echigo, they immediately said with great joy: "This is really good news. Once Kira Yoshitoki leaves, the two counties can be taken back naturally!  " "I think it may be very difficult!"  Mochizuki Yoshitomi reminded: "The Kira family has 8,000 troops left behind. Among them, the four main reserves are intact, and the Kira Navy's powerful support force is still the best in Omi!"  The most important thing is the support of the imperial court and the shogunate. My lord, don't forget the close friendship between Duke Wu Wei and today's Guan Bai and generals.  " "Damn it!  So those two counties are still gone?  Rokkaku Yoshixian said angrily: "Is there no other way?"  " It was as if he was asking Mochizuki Yoshitš­, or talking to himself. Yoshitsune Mochizuki did not answer his question. After a while, he reported again: "A letter from Takawuden in Hanoi asked"  In Akutagawa Mountain Castle,  Miyoshi Changqing is playing Go with Miyoshi Yixian, both of whom are first-class writers.Nakato has a very high level of cultural literacy. Even if he learned that Kira Yoshi was about to leave Kinki, he would have no doubts about it. It was not until after the game of chess was played that Miyoshi Yoshihide smiled and said: "My brother's chess skills are still so good." "That's right.  Kang is distracted! You have to be focused on playing chess. You were distracted just now." Miyoshi Changqing shook his head and said, "Is it because of that incident at the time of Kiraragi?"  Life can be much easier." Miyoshi Yixian said with a smile: "Should we celebrate?" "I don't think things are that simple. You and I both understand the temperament of today's public. How could he give up on himself at this time?  The mainstay of the family is Echigo?" Miyoshi Nagakei thought, "There must be some reason that we don't know about." "Is it the Rokkaku family? The one from the Rokkaku family has not made anything this year, even if he joins the public.  It's strange." Miyoshi Yoshixian reminded again: "It must be because of his good brother-in-law." "His Majesty, you are wise! If you throw out a poisonous bait that I have to eat, Hosokawa Harumoto will do it no matter what.  It's claustrophobic, but it will inevitably lead to conflict with the Rokkaku family." Miyoshi Changqing sneered, "Do you really think that the Rokkaku family can do it? Once Kira Yoshitoki leaves, who else will be my opponent in Kinai?  After three or two years of training, I will deal with those traitors in Tanba, and I will do the same with you again!" "Haha Kyoto will still be ours until then. If the Lord obeys my Miyoshi family, everything will be fine. If he doesn't, I don't mind letting him do it!  Go to Sakamoto and continue to take refuge." The two brothers looked at each other and smiled brightly.  Rumors that the Kira family is about to leave are spreading more and more widely. Especially when everyone in the Kira family is busy dividing military service, it is basically confirmed that this matter is inseparable, and whoever stays in the two counties will have to take care of them.  Leaving became a new topic. Although the Mikawa samurai were reluctant to leave Omi's customs, they still chose to firmly support Kira Yoshitoki's decision. The attitude of the Omi people became very interesting. Most of the people in Takashima County were unwilling to leave, including Gao  Without exception, Shima Nanato expressed his willingness to defend the territory for the Kira family.  Most of the people in Shiga County are unwilling to leave, and only a small number are willing to continue to follow the Kira family, because the samurai who stay behind can still maintain their original treatment. In this way, no one is willing to follow them to the bitter cold of Echigo.  To develop, of course some people are unwilling to leave, but naturally there are also those who are willing to follow. For example, Miyabe Tsurujun is very optimistic about the Kira family and has made it clear that he is willing to follow.  The final statistics came out quickly. Only more than 300 Omi's samurai were willing to follow. This made Kira Yoshitoki feel relieved. If there were fewer samurai, he could draw more ashigaru to fill it. After all, Omi's reserve team was also real gold.  Those trained by Bai Yin would be at a loss if they didn't take away the best among them.  (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster! PS: No matter in ancient and modern times, there is both kindness and affection between monarchs and ministers, and it is difficult to recover if the affection is hurt.
